DID YOU KNOW? 1 in 5 Albertans are food insecure.

Your business can be a community leader & give back.

In the Commercial Food & Waste Diversion pilot, surplus edible food stays out of the landfill and gets into the hands of our most vulnerable community members. (Food that can’t be donated is converted to high-quality compost.)

In 2023, Leftovers diverted more than 1 million lbs of surplus edible food from landfill. 🚚
